Open up and break into another world

“The Willpower Assessment determines the intensity of the Willpower Pressure based on your cultivation level and realm!” The gray-clothed figure's voice continued to echo.

Cultivation level and realm?

Xu Ming's cultivation level is only at the pitiful All Things Realm; the strength brought about by this level of cultivation can basically be ignored.

And Xu Ming's current strength mainly comes from his realm! — the "God-Rank True Self Third Order" realm!

The gray-clothed figure continued, “A Emperor-Rank True Self Third Order is usually comparable in strength to a Half-Step Realm Lord; while a God-Rank True Self Third Order is already comparable to a true Realm Lord!”

Xu Ming nodded silently.

Indeed, with his current realm, even without using cheats, his strength is comparable to a true Realm Lord!

“Realm Lords are divided into nine orders! Although God-Rank True Self is strong, it can only be compared to ‘Realm Lord First Order’!” The gray-clothed figure added, “Therefore, this Willpower Assessment will begin with the ‘Willpower Impact’ of the Realm Lord First Order level! — When this red sun rises to the center of the sky, you will face the Willpower Impact of the Realm Lord First Order peak; then, the second red sun will begin to appear!”

Xu Ming instantly understood the rules of this “Willpower Assessment”.

Generally speaking, Willpower is not weaker than strength! Moreover, it is often one or two levels higher than strength.

For example, with the strength of a Realm Lord First Order, the Willpower is likely to be Realm Lord Second Order, Realm Lord Third Order, or even higher!

The stronger the Willpower, the stronger the belief in becoming stronger! And if the Willpower and strength are at the same level, such as “Realm Lord First Order” strength, with only “Realm Lord First Order” Willpower, then it means… the belief in becoming stronger is almost gone!

Xu Ming somewhat guessed why the third round of assessment would be the “Willpower Assessment” — to create an unparalleled powerhouse, talent, luck, and Willpower are indispensable! And these three things are exactly the content of the three rounds of assessment!

Of course, Xu Ming's strength is not limited to this! — Xu Ming had already started cultivating the "Severing Mortal Dust" technique in the mortal realm! In the beginning, this technique seemed to be a "useless technique", and even compared to those unranked techniques, it didn't seem to have any advantages; however, as Xu Ming's cultivation level increased, the "Severing Mortal Dust" technique became more and more dazzling!

Simply put, it's… full of potential!

Because he cultivated the "Severing Mortal Dust", and also because of the strength bonus of some other techniques; even without using cheats, Xu Ming's strength could reach the terrifying "Realm Lord Fifth Order"!

This is much, much stronger than the other geniuses on the Primordial All Things Ranking! You must know that even the person who was originally ranked first on the Primordial All Things Ranking, “Zhou Ji”, only barely reached “Realm Lord Second Order”!

His strength alone had already reached the terrifying “Realm Lord Fifth Order”; and Xu Ming's Willpower was much stronger than his strength, already reaching the Willpower of a “Half-Step Supreme”!

And all of this… was under the circumstance that Xu Ming didn't use cheats!

If he used cheats, Xu Ming's Willpower could easily reach the “Supreme” level!

Willpower Assessment?

For Xu Ming, is there any essential difference from “playing house”?

Now, a Willpower Impact comparable to “Realm Lord First Order” is coming towards Xu Ming in waves; although the pressure is strong, Xu Ming feels like he is bathing in a spring breeze.

Too easy!

Of course, the gray-clothed figure also saw that the current intensity of the Willpower Impact posed no threat to Xu Ming. However, he still reminded, “Don’t be careless! This is just the beginning! If the Willpower Assessment was really easy, then no genius would have been able to pass it over endless years!”

“That’s right!” Xu Ming asked, “What level does Willpower need to reach to pass the assessment?”

“I don’t know!” The gray-clothed figure said, “After all, I have never seen anyone pass the Willpower Assessment! — I won’t disturb you, you concentrate on the assessment!”

As he spoke, the gray-clothed figure directly disappeared.

…

Outside this silver-white continent.

In the endless starry sky.

The gray-clothed figure stood with his hands behind his back — did he really not know what level Willpower needed to reach to pass the assessment?

No!

Of course, he knew!

It's just that he was worried that if he said it, it would scare Xu Ming, causing Xu Ming to lose his Willpower, so he didn't dare to say it.

“Willpower is not fixed in the first place; it will have great variability in different environments! Moreover, the more it is tempered, the sharper it becomes!” The gray-clothed figure thought to himself, “Even if Xu Ming's current Willpower level has not reached the requirements, as long as his belief is strong enough, he has a chance to break through to stronger Willpower in the process of the assessment! And if I tell Xu Ming now what level of Willpower he needs to reach; maybe, Xu Ming will be directly scared and lose his belief!”

It has to be said that the gray-clothed figure is also well-intentioned.

“Throughout the ages, I don’t know how many geniuses have participated in the Talent Assessment and the Luck Assessment; but only Xu Ming has been recognized by the master!” The gray-clothed figure thought to himself, “Only Xu Ming has obtained the true opportunity left by the master, and he has already obtained two of them! It’s just… can Xu Ming pass the Willpower Assessment?”

Even if his master has a high opinion of Xu Ming, the gray-clothed figure still can't believe that Xu Ming can pass the Willpower Assessment.

“After all… to pass the Willpower Assessment, Willpower needs to exceed strength by twelve orders!” The gray-clothed figure thought in horror, “Twelve orders… Realm Lord First Order strength requires a ‘Half-Venerable Fourth Order’ Willpower! This is simply impossible to achieve!”

The most ⊥ new ⊥ small ⊥ said ⊥ in ⊥ six ⊥ 9 ⊥ ⊥ book ⊥ ⊥ bar ⊥ ⊥ first ⊥ hair!

Indeed, it is almost impossible to achieve!

You must know that if Willpower can surpass strength by three orders, it is already a genius with incomparably firm Willpower and belief!

If Willpower surpasses strength by six orders, it is difficult to find one in an entire quadrant!

If Willpower surpasses strength by nine orders, there have not been many in the entire history of the universe!

And if Willpower surpasses strength by twelve orders, the gray-clothed figure has never even heard of it! So… even he can't understand why the master set up this almost impossible to pass assessment!

“Could it be that the master really believes that there is a genius whose Willpower can surpass strength by twelve orders?” The gray-clothed figure couldn't help but shake his head. Then, he looked at Xu Ming, “Hopefully… Xu Ming can meet the master’s requirements!”

Among the many geniuses the gray-clothed figure has seen, Xu Ming's talent and strength are definitely the well-deserved first, and far surpasses other geniuses!

“However… a Half-Venerable Fourth Order Willpower is simply impossible to achieve!” The gray-clothed figure felt it was impossible even thinking about it.

Half-Venerable Fourth Order?

If Xu Ming knew that as long as he had Half-Venerable Fourth Order Willpower, he could pass the Willpower Assessment, then Xu Ming might have to take a nap in the “Willpower Assessment”… By the time he woke up, he would have already passed the Willpower Assessment!

After all, even if Xu Ming doesn't use cheats, he can probably pass the Willpower Assessment! Under the circumstances of using cheats, the so-called Willpower Assessment poses no threat to him at all!

Of course, the gray-clothed figure doesn't know any of this!

Therefore, in this Willpower Assessment, the gray-clothed figure is destined to be shocked!
